One of my favorite songs of all time. A true masterpiece.
Perfect masterpiece by perfect band. Its so good. The most underrated DT song probably. This live performance is out of this world. I absolutely love it.
Highly underrated epic song. Musically, it’s probably my favorite composition by them. Better than any other epics for sure. The performance is untouchable as well. Virtuoso progressive rock musicians playing their best composition at their best. I’m with you Rich.
Better that The Count of Tuscany?
I personally think James Labrie's singing is quite awful. It constantly baffles me how a group of musicians with this unearthly level of talent can possibly tolerate having a vocalist with his level of inexperience in their band.
@@bakarenibsheut12 The only reason they refuse to fire LaBrie is because of everything he has contributed to the band in terms of lyrics, and musical composition. He has been the vocalist for well over 20 years and has played significant roles in all their major albums in that time. That said, I do think that after their tour in support of the new record (A View From The Top Of The World), they should part ways with James in the most respectful of terms, and hold auditions for a new vocalist.
@@JdDiehl Fair enough, he has contributed quite a bit compositionally. I doubt they will do this, though, as James seems to have a good relationship with the band members and it would be difficult for them to make a cold-hearted decision like that after all these years with him (even Portnoy left of his own accord rather than due to being fired). As for my criticism of James, he is indeed quite bad now, but he was incredible in the days of Images and Words.
@@bakarenibsheut12 Agreed
Wow! Thank you so much guys for taking my request! Glad to see that you were blown away. Take a look at the lyrics when you get the chance and you may understand why I said in the initial request that this song was somehow a life saver for me. Merci again for what you do and for spreading the love of amazing music!
Thank you guys for reminding me that wonderful night in March 2008 singing out loud all chaos in motion songs live in Colombia...Love your channel !!!. Greetings from Colombia
They did part 1 at the Distance Over Time live show.... what an amazing experience live. I think you guys may have seen this live if you went to that show... ??
One of the greatest songs ever made.
This might be my all time favorite DT performance (Well, between this and A Change of Seasons from Live Scenes from NY.) It's literally perfect, aside from the not-so-great quality. They were all on their A game. I've always liked this song, but in the past few years it's become one of my favorites. The whole Systematic Chaos album has aged so well, besides Prophets of War.
There is only word to describe Dream Theater's epic music. MAJESTY.
It's also the name of one of the best guitars in the world. Unfortunately, they don't make left handed versions of them.
No!! It is not just you Rich! ROFL Seeing your reaction at 26:14 was just priceless brother. I understand exactly what you were going through. Dream Theater always blows me away. Their music just keeps getting better and better. You guys are awesome God bless
Thank you brother. So appreciate your thoughts and words. Much love. Rich
No one does these epic finales like Dream Theater. And this one in particular gives me the shivers every time.
Kel and Rich, do yourselves a HUGE favor and go buy Dream Theater Live at Budokan on bluray and Dream Theater Score on DVD. YOUR MOUTHS WILL BE ON THE FLOOR, I PROMISE! Don't delay! You need these two masterpieces in your lives right now.
The two parts of the song are the first and last songs on the album, but combined and played live it is one of their best epics, if not the best.
Bro you’re definitely not prepared for this song! Your reaction was just genuine. This is one of my favourite music and the album is just amazing.
Love your work guys 🤘 keep going 🇵🇹
I’ve seen 6DOIT LIVE...OCTAVARIUM LIVE..SCENES FROM A MEMORY LIVE...IMAGES AND WORDS LIVE... AND THIS LIVE..IM BLESSED
Thanks for reacting to this!! This is my favorite DT song!!
That was fun! I always love when you come back home to Dream Theater. Thanks for sharing. Peace.
You are so damn wholesome, I love watching your reaction videos! Doesn't hurt that this time you've really picked an epic piece of music. Keep on keepin' on!
I got to see this show in Houston from this very tour. I also got the VIP meet and greet experience. One of my best experiences ever!!
I'll never get over Mike Portnoy's split from DT. :(
I dont like and hate this comment. But its indeed
Great song you reacted to. I actually was present here in NYC back in August of 2000 when Dream Theater did Scenes From A Memory in its entirety, at the legendary Roseland Ballroom, which was recorded and became Live Scenes From New York. The live album was released in 2001 and had to be recalled because it showed the twin towers on fire, which was too much considering the Twin Towers were destroyed not long after the album release. . Great show., ran about 3 hours.
They absolutely did both In the presence of enemies pt1 & pt2 here in Chile 🇨🇱 in 2008 while the S. A. Tour. And it was insanely amazing.
This music is quite incredible, i never tire of it.
you GOTTA react to this dying soul live at budokan. you haven't seen the real energy of Dream Theater. oh man, and those stage lightings as well, you gotta see that one!
Very special thanks to you for this one ❤
BEST.....BAND.....EVERRRRR!!!!!!
And this is why they are my favorite band. I love seeing you guys, especially Rich, react to Dream Theater music because it's like your my spirit animal sitting there watching greatness and at times just having this wordless realization that this is it. There's a lot of brilliant music out there and it's not a competition, but at the end of the day, even with my very wide musical taste there's just nothing that comes close to DT.
You had it right the first time Rich, at 15:40 (in the video) / around 9 minutes of the song it changes to Part 2. Also the Chaos in Motion dvd is basically a collection of different songs from different shows from that tour, so the overall quality suffers because they filmed so much of it. I'd say it's their worst dvd, but at the same time I saw them live for the first time during that tour in 2007 so it'll always be special for me. Seeing the show begin with the yellow traffic light turning from red to yellow to green and In The Presence of Enemies blasting out in its entirety as the first song of the night... ah, changed music forever for me.
Didn't they play this near the end of the show? Which show were you in
@@picklemaster5144 Helsinki Finland. They mixed their setlist up with 2 or 3 different variations during the tour, so for some like me it was at the beginning.
Guys, The Dark Eternal Night, same show, same album, enjoy the live version. More Dream Fucking Theater!!
Hands down, one of my favorite DT songs. On the Chaos in Motion DVD that this is from, it was intentional that the camera work is the way it is.
I have been Waiting for you to listen to this version, ranks only number 2 to Ocatavarium!! I love this song!!!
This band is like a book with music, you never know what comes next. Mystery.................... Mike Portnoy is the man... John Petrucci
Rich, just loved watching your face melt. LOL! Was it Wayne and Garth? "We're not worthy!"
Totally !!!!! Almost didn't get it back on straight. I hate it when that happens. Rich
Every one forgets When Dream and Day Unite. It was their first album with their original singer.
My fav DT shows were 93 98 07 2000 then 2009.
it is not just you, anyone with great taste in music gets blown by DT. I have been a fan for 30 years.
Blind faith is the song where Jordan shines the most
Just wait until you react to Dark Eternal Night from off the same album!!
The studio version is so much better in quality! Should have gone with that one to be honest.
One of my favourite tracks by DT Basically it is about the internal battle within I prefer the studio version as James vocals are a bit better on the studio version, at times you can hear him struggling to reach some notes. Still miss MP For me they lost some of the song writing consistency when Mike left
Very true IMO
I mean. They really are the greatest metal band ever.
They took the best elements of Iron Maiden and Rush and made a beautiful offspring.
That immense praise included, I do think they are better in the studio....just ever so slightly.
Too bad you couldn't react to the studio versions first.
Kel n Rich, the new Vanden Plas song/video was just released today (Wed. Aug 28), if you'd like to try a reaction to them. Vanden Plas - The Ghost Xperiment
Vanden Plas always gets compared to Dream Theater, though to be honest they fall between Dream Theater & Symphony X, music-wise.
And still not the promised reaction to the DT song: the spirit carries on - score version
Could you please tell me when that will be reacted to?
Its now months ago
If you want to see a good concert performance, you should checkout "Time Long Past/Exodus" by Fates Warning done at ProgPower USA in 2016. It was the 30 year anniversary of the release of Awaken the Guardian and Jim Matheos got all the original members together for a couple of shows to perform it in it's entirety. John Arch hadn't performed these songs in 30 years and really nails it. I already requested it.
Excelente video! Saludos desde Torreón, México. Les recomiendo el vídeo en vivo de Outcry de Dream Theater
💁♀️🙇♂️ l love them❤❤ from chile....
Freaking Awesome!
I’m pretty sure this song is based off of a Korean comic called “Priest” about a fallen priest who fights against the literal forces of hell. I may have some of that wrong though, read that somewhere a little while ago.
Have you ever listened to Dream Theater's very first album, When Day And Dream Unite, from 1988?? That has the original lead singer before James La Brie. I had seen them open for Winger in 88 in a small club in New Haven, Connecticut called Toads Place. DT blew Winger off the stage!! Been a fan ever since. Please give it a try. Rowland
@@antoniocarlin5026 That is very true. The original lead singer's father actually named the band. It was in passing as he was describing the bands music and sound as a, Dream Theater.
1989*
@@paulpv7 thx man
ReCONN SUPERNATURAL SYNDICATE Spirit Investigations that was Mike Portnoy’s father, actually. There was an actual place in New York called the dream theater.
@@reconnsupernaturalsyndicat1493 i know this is from 2 years ago but it was mike portnoy's father not charlie
1989.? I thought you said the first time you heard them was 6:00 coming over the loudspeaker. That wasn't until 1994. Awake Released: October 4, 1994. Hmmmm.?
I prefer it when you two take up the screen and the video is in the corner. Kel's reactions make me laugh sometimes. It's tougher to see if you guys are smaller. It's cool once in a while, though.
I don't think there is such a thing as a bad Dream Theater song.
What fecking musicians
A true masterpiece! Excellent video guys but please react to this song: Gargoyles, Angels of Darkness by Rhapsody, this is Symphonic Epic Hollywood Metal.
Greetings from Costa Rica!
Rhapsody, Rhapsody of Fire, Luca Turelli's Rhapsody of Fire. I have all their albums and it's all excellent. Turelli is an amazing guitarist.
Rich's face though lololol
Guys plz do Harlequin forest by OPETH live at Royal albert hall!!
My favorite🤟
Dream Theater isn’t Dream Theater without Portnoy❤️
The studio version is waaaaayyy better
9:00
if a Band harmonising on such a high level, it is a must to stay at the side by the band. Portnoy's egoism was not split the band off, but the musically harmony was gone. And sorry Mike.... everything you did after D.T. was just a cheep nothing. Yes, they all are good musicians, but without a Soul. They are just Stage Divas.
I don’t think the reactions here are authentic- if you are a Dreamtheater fan then you definitely know these songs- I don’t believe you are only “hearing” this for the first time 🤷
J.F.
HEY YOU GUY'S!!! sorry have not said anything in a while but life is finally not kicking me into the gutter and i needed a feel good environment and saw you guys doing the song that got me into DT and the song is about a man tired of his travel to heaven is stopped by a man promising him power, salvation and vengeance if he just serves the dark master and he does but in the end after so much blood shed well they said it best "My soul is my own now i do not fight for you Dark Master." like mike said its a grate song for thous feeling like giving into or already have fallen to there dark side and i don't mean that as some joke it is a bad place to be that no one benefits from and about just taking it back saying no its my life its my choice.
Thank you so much for being here again and giving such an amazing explanation of these two parts!!!!! Much love @Boondaba!!!
